My question is to the Prime Minister. Yesterday, coalition senators on the Senate Economics Legislation Committee delivered a report backing the Prime Minister's legislation which ensures that tax paid by private corporations with turnover of over $100 million a year will be kept secret. Given that, according to the tax office, one in five of these companies paid no tax last year, is the Prime Minister concerned about this lack of transparency? Will his government act?
